I think that one of the most fundamental responsibilities is to give testimony in a court of law, to give it honestly and willingly.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Testifying has helped me understand that one individual's behavior and actions make a difference. That my actions are important to people other than myself.
That justice should be administered between men, it is necessary that testimonies of fact be alleged; and that witnesses should apprehend themselves greatly obliged to discover the truth, according to their conscience, in dark and doubtful cases.
We should remember that bearing a heartfelt testimony is only a beginning. We need to bear testimony, we need to mean it, and most importantly we need consistently to live it. We need to both declare and live our testimonies.
As Christians, it's our duty to stand up for what we believe - that's called testifying.
My responsibility is to ensure that the position of the Department of Justice is not only legally defensible, but is informed by our best view of what the law is after consideration of all the facts.
Testimony gives something to be interpreted.
Testimony should be a philosophical problem and not limited to legal or historical contexts where it refers to the account of a witness who reports what he has seen.
Being, in the testimony it gives of itself, informs us not only about what it is but also about what we owe it.
But I have always said that it's important we must make sure that justice is at all time be maintained.
The act of witnessing is important to me; somebody's got to tell the truth, you know what I mean?
